Using a theoretical foundation and practical studies on job satisfaction and employee loyalty, the author built a five-point Likert scale to determine the reward structure as well as the influencing level of each factor on employee loyalty. Additionally, this study determines the level of influence of three factors—Rewards, Empowerment, and Hierarchical Position—on the job satisfaction of employees, The interaction of job satisfaction and employee loyalty is a statistically significant indication of employee loyalty.
